Thanks, Ragnar.
My reason for asking is that I've implemented a robust form of actor in
Java https://github.com/laforge49/JActor2 and want to play with a
simplified version in Clojure as a first project in the language. But I'm
just hardly getting started. I've only been looking at Clojure for
You can check with `(clojure.lang.LockingTransaction/isRunning)` (the io!
macro does this) but I'm not sure if it's considered a public API.

Hi Bill,
You are correct in that this involves close integration with the STM. The
agent implementation is aware of transactions and if a transaction is
running when dispatching an action, it will be enqneued in a special agent
action queue that STM implementation respects.
AFAIK there is no p
On this page http://clojure.org/agents I read the following:
"Agents are integrated with the STM - any dispatches made in a
transaction are held until it commits, and are discarded if it is retried
or aborted."
So there must be a way to tell if a dispatch is made from within a
transaction.
